When a drive, SSD, RAID or NAS fails anywhere in the UK, it can be on our clean bench by tomorrow — posted in from any postcode, or dropped at our Belfast lab in person. We open, image and rebuild every device ourselves, in-house, and we’re one of a handful of UK labs that genuinely recovers cryptocurrency wallets: forgotten passwords and faulty Ledgers and Trezors. Free diagnostic, a fixed written quote before a penny is charged, and no fix, no fee on most jobs.

Recent recoveries from our lab, sent in from around the country — identifying details removed, and every result checked file-by-file before it goes back.
Rebuilding on the live array had stalled and was risking the data. We imaged every disk offline, reconstructed the array virtually from the copies, and returned the file server and its virtual machines intact.
The SHR array had lost its redundancy and then a second member. We imaged all five disks, rebuilt the array and its Btrfs volume offline, and handed back the full shared library.
The heads had crashed onto the platters. On the clean bench we fitted matched donor heads, imaged the drive before it could degrade further, and recovered a full season of shoots.
Many ‘local’ recovery shops quietly forward your drive to a specialist lab — sometimes one overseas — and add a markup on top. We are that lab. Send your device straight to us and it goes to the people who actually do the work, and nowhere else, from the moment it arrives to the moment it’s back with you.
Every device is opened, imaged and rebuilt on our own bench by our own engineers — no middleman, no subcontractor.
Your drive and your data stay with us in the UK at every stage — never passed to a third party, never shipped abroad.
Registered with the ICO (No. ZC173784) and fully GDPR-compliant, with NDAs available whenever a job calls for one.
A desktop drive that won’t spin, a NAS that won’t rebuild, a snapped USB stick, a ransomware-hit server, a locked crypto wallet — whatever failed and wherever you are, we have the clean bench, the donor parts and the tooling to get your files back.
We’re not a shopfront that couriers your drive elsewhere and marks it up. We’re the lab — a quarter of a century on the bench, and the equipment and patience to take on the jobs other firms hand off or turn down.
On most recoveries you pay nothing unless we succeed — and you see a full file listing to check before you approve anything.
Your drive is opened and imaged here in our own UK lab — never subcontracted, never sent overseas to someone else.
A no-obligation diagnostic and a fixed written quote before work starts, so nothing about the price comes as a surprise.
